Le pauvre Lucas Nickle, 10 ans, n'a vraiment pas de chance. Installé depuis peu avec sa famille dans une nouvelle ville, il n'a pas réussi à s'y faire un seul ami. Pis, Lucas est devenu le souffre-douleur de la brute locale, Steve, qui ne manque pas une occasion de le malmener. En guise d'exutoire, l'enfant ne trouve rien de mieux que d'effrayer et de martyriser les fourmis de son jardin, en s'amusant à shooter dans la fourmilière et à arroser ou écraser sauvagement ses minuscules hôtes. Lucas ne soupçonne pas que la fourmilière abrite une société hyperactive, complexe, très organisée et hautement structurée... qui en a plus que marre de ses stupides agissements. Zoc, le Sorcier, trouve enfin la parade: en faisant absorber à Lucas une goutte de sa potion magique, il le réduit... à la taille d'une fourmi... (texte officiel du distributeur)

In all respects an average picture for young kids which, thanks to the “action" scenes and it being relatively short, can be lived through relatively problem free. Only the parts with the wasps are any good. The rest is a harmless or even uninteresting kids’ movie with a very forced lesson at the end. The third * is for the experience I had with the IMAX 3D version which clearly demonstrates what potential the future of movies holds in store.

A pleasant adventure for the whole family that never disappoints. The animation is nice and there are quite a few funny moments, but I still can't shake the feeling that I've seen all this before... and better. 65%

A totally average animated film in all respects, with neither much humour nor an interesting story. Another variation on the "reformed bastard" theme we've seen a thousand times before. But thanks to the running time, it's quite easy to sit through.

Excellent animated anthills, grass, water, and various present creatures in the story that is great to watch, especially if you have siblings next to you who are having a royal time. Classic aspects of a family animated film, such as an important grumpy male character (Zoc) or an infectiously optimistic or totally depressed pairing (here, in the first case, a bee and a strange snail(?)). Surprisingly nice thing that can lift your mood.
